IT Certifications
Hiding Behind Certification - An overreliance on IT sheepskins is a recipe for disaster:

An interesting read.
That was a good read, though I am starting to feel a want for getting myself certified in pretty much everything. I can be like, one of the few people with certifications who actually know things (or is good at pretending, whatev).
I was considering it too, but I’d rather do something else, like eat broken glass flavored with fermented cod eyes.
